Oh it's on, it's on like donkey kong after he retired but wanted to keep playing a sport his fragile body could deal with.
Not guilty pleasures per se, because I'm definitely not ashamed of them. More along the lines of unconventional music choices: Pretty much anything by Michelle Branch, some of My Chemical Romance, AFI (specifically the December Underground and Sing the Sorrow albums). Oh and Darren Criss. Can blame the girlfriend for that one <iframe width="640" height="390" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/sdpYRfPnhO0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Ok, this one does come with a huge amount of guilt. <iframe width="640" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/LiSxQqX1wnc?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Yep. For Good shamelessly ripped from yours once I realised the Wicked version of Defying Gravity wouldn't work.
Joined up to play for school once. Ended up having to choose between captaining the school's cricket team and playing bowls because they clashed. Went with the cricket, ftr. Devastated I couldn't do both.
That's such a stupid clash. You'd think they'd really struggle to fill a bowls team in general, and you'd also think most of the people they could possibly convince to play it would be on the cricket side really. Takes a certain type. Was there any way they could've avoided that clash?
I don't think so really. Cricket side was way overdue to play that match, so it had to happen that week to allow our opposition to march to the State Finals, while the Bowls thing was a regional tournament deal IIRC. No real overlap though. The Bowls was run by a either a science or a maths teacher, so my mates who did physics and whatnot joined up in an ironic "yeah, bowls is cool" kind of way. FTR the team we were up against was filled with guys I knew through my weekend cricket club. Rain-shortened match, 25 overs per side or something stupid. Our opening bowler, and first change bowler both 'broke down' after their first spells and I couldn't convince anyone to bowl the last over, so had to do it myself. Removed the 'keeper caught in the deep (has since gone on to play 3rd grade IIRC). My 1/8 (1) looked pretty good in the context of 4/225. We barely made 50 in reply. My contribution from #3 was 0, out caught at silly mid off having hit the ball straight into the pitch.
